Wooden Board Day 2011
This year’s 3rd annual wooden surfboard day was a great success. It all started with Saturday night at the Gold Coast Surf Museum where three very talented shapers and board builders shared their talent and experiences with the 100 odd people gathered.

Wooden Board Day Currumbin Alley August 8th
After the success of the first Wooden Board Day at Currumbin Alley last August, Grant Newby (of Fish Fry fame) decided to organise another for Sunday 8th of August in the park across the road from the beach.
Fry up
After waking up not so unusually late, my mood dropped with the sound of the rain on the roof on my van. I was shooting the 4th annual Alley Fish Fry on Australia’s Gold Coast, but I wasn’t going to allow a bit of rain to spoil the day. I’m a British surfer, goddammit, used to braving much worse conditions in search of a wave. This bit of drizzle was nothing to write home about.
